One Health

The One Health Initiative is a collaborative, multisectoral, and transdisciplinary approach that works locally, regionally, nationally, and globally to achieve optimal health outcomes for people, animals, plants, and the environment. It recognizes the interconnection between these entities and their shared environment, especially in the context of the spread of diseases.
